2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.62 – Xanthelasma of right lower eyelid

What it is

H02.62 identifies xanthelasma on the right lower eyelid. It means a localized yellowish plaque of lipid-laden tissue on that eyelid.

Clinical signs

Typical findings are soft, flat or slightly raised yellow plaques near the eyelid margin. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents xanthelasma specifically on the right lower eyelid. It is appropriate for a confirmed diagnosis in the assessment, problem list, or encounter note. If the laterality or eyelid location is unclear, check documentation before assigning a code.

Do not use for

Do not use it for xanthelasma on a different eyelid or on both eyelids. Do not use it when the record only says “eyelid lesion” or another diagnosis without confirming xanthelasma.

Coding tip

Match the code to both the lesion type and the exact eyelid side documented by the provider.
